Absolutely everything about last night’s debate was a sh*tshow, except that on Twitter, a number of people responsible for their own sh*tshows chimed in with self-burns to put just how bad that debate was into context. To wit, one of the greatest tweets of 2020:

That was the worst thing I’ve ever seen, and I wrote FANTASTIC FOUR.

— Jeremy Slater (@jerslater) September 30, 2020

That’s a good tweet (and Jeremy Slater obviously survived The Fantastic Four, having written and developed Umbrella Academy and has also been assigned those duties on an MCU series, Moon Knight. The tweet also inspired a number of other tweets in a similar vein, although none quite reached the heights of Mr. Slater:

That debate was the worst thing I've ever seen & I was in The Star Wars Holiday Special.
